Some Guides to Discovery About Elm Trees, Owls, Cockroaches, Earthworms, Cement and Concrete.

Busch, Phyllis S.

The introduction emphasizes the need for environmental and conservation education, and advocates an inquiry approach. Outdoor resources available to every school are listed. Detailed suggestions are made for investigating cement and concrete, cockroaches, earthworms, elm trees, and owls. In each case general background information and a list of references is followed by suggested student activities. Identification keys and instructions for constructing simple apparatus are given where needed. This work was prepared under an ESEA Title III contract. (EB)
